The newly formed DC Police Reform Commission (more) held a meeting on Monday, September 14, 2020 at which subcommittees were formed. The Commission also has a new website.
Each committee will choose a lead and a co-lead and develop a schedule for the committee to meet on a regular basis. It was decided that because the committees’ respective areas overlap, they will need to work together and not be overly siloed.
The Commission now has a website that is being regularly updated with all the relevant information, including minutes from their meetings:
